:40:00
Please take this.
:40:05
Thank you kindly, ma'am.
:40:22
Dearest mother and father,
:40:24
I'm off on a fool's mission and
cannot be certain of the outcome.
:40:28
There's not time for me to write
all the things I wish to tell you.
:40:31
Many a time have I thought
to abandon my charge
:40:34
here rather than submit to
the willfulness of others
:40:35
who have been placed above me.
:40:38
I want you to know that
I've always tried to act
:40:40
according to the lessons of duty and honor
:40:42
that have been your legacy to me.
:40:44
I've traveled far
:40:46
and seen too much,
:40:47
but always I think of home.
:40:49
You are both in my prayers.
:40:51
I remain forever your loving son, jacob.
:41:03
- Can I help you, ma'am?
- yes
:41:05
We're looking for the person who sent this.
:41:11
Robert?
:41:21
He was your son?
:41:24
Yes.
:41:26
I'm sorry.
:41:30
The man who gave you the letter-
:41:33
did he tell you anything?
:41:35
Only that your son was a good man
:41:39
and he loved his family.
:41:46
Thank you.
:41:57
I want to see the place where it happened.
:41:59
The battlefield's 2 days by wagon, ma'am.
